Chapter 705 The beginning of love
Being able to find extra rooms in "Windy Courtyard" was a pleasant surprise for Su Ning and Xu Hongdou. Then, under the guidance of the proprietress Xie Xiaochun, they happily moved into rooms 5 and 6, and then looked around at the layout of the two rooms.

"Ms. Xu, when I went to the express delivery point to pick up the package for you yesterday, I was surprised that you had so much luggage. I didn't expect it was for both of you." At this time, Xie Xiaochun, the owner of "Youfeng Xiaoyuan", looked at Xu Hongdou and said with a smile.

"Madam boss, I'm sorry to bother you." Xu Hongdou first looked at Su Ning beside her, and then said to Xie Xiaochun a little embarrassedly.

"It's no trouble! This is what I should do." The proprietress Xie Xiaochun said with a smile without caring.

Looking at the two Dali-style cottages in front of them, Suning and Xu Hongdou were both very satisfied. Just as they were looking around, they heard the proprietress Xie Xiaochun briefly introduce the situation of "Windy Courtyard".

"Boss, is there anyone who can repair mobile phones in your Yunmiao Village?" Suning looked at the boss lady Xie Xiaochun in confusion and asked.

"No! To repair your cell phone here, you have to go to town." At this time, the proprietress Xie Xiaochun shook her head blankly.

"Then, boss lady, can you help us find a group of horses? We can pay the rent separately. Tomorrow I want to take Xu Hongdou to the town to repair her cell phone." Suning knew that the merchants in Yunmiao Village were all for profit, so he offered to pay the extra rent.

"Horse? Mr. Su, can you ride a horse?" Hearing Su Ning's sudden request, the proprietress Xie Xiaochun looked at Su Ning in surprise and asked.

“I can ride!”

"Okay! I'll bring the horse to you tomorrow morning." Since Suning took the initiative to offer rent, the proprietress Xie Xiaochun agreed with a smile on her face.

"Thank you, boss lady."

After the proprietress Xie Xiaochun left, Suning and Xu Hongdou simply packed up. Seeing that it was still early outside, Suning suggested taking Xu Hongdou out for a walk and buying some food. After all, they were a little hungry after all the running around.

Xu Hongdou could no longer contain her excitement. After hearing Suning's proposal, she nodded in agreement with surprise. Then she happily followed Suning downstairs with her digital camera. When they went downstairs, they still saw the "pretentious guy" meditating in the yard.

"Suning, this person is so weird!" Xu Hongdou approached Suning and pointed at the "pretentious guy" and whispered.

"Hongdou, maybe everyone has their own story too." Suning couldn't help but think of the plot of "Where the Wind Is" and thought that everyone has his or her own story.

"Well, Suning, what you said makes sense."

Suning and Xu Hongdou then walked aimlessly along the quaint streets, and then they saw a very interesting farmhouse restaurant. Looking at the very distinctive menu at the door of the restaurant, Xu Hongdou was surprised and kept taking pictures with her camera.

At this time, an old lady walked out of the farmhouse restaurant and explained to Su Ning and Xu Hongdou awkwardly, "Sorry! I had an emergency and we're closed now."

"Boss, how about this? I'll give you 500 yuan and we can borrow your kitchen and ingredients to cook it ourselves." Suning suggested with a nonchalant smile.

"Ah? How can you do this? They are just ordinary farm ingredients, not worth so much money." The proprietress said in surprise and quickly declined.

"Then boss lady, do you agree with our proposal?" Su Ning immediately heard the boss lady's willingness in his heart.

"Okay! Then you just need to give me a hundred dollars, and you can use whatever you want in the kitchen." Although the proprietress was very surprised, she still spoke very simply and kindly.

"Thank you, Madam! We will help you pack up when we leave. Besides, we will live in the 'Windy Courtyard' next door." Suning and Xu Hongdou looked at each other in surprise, and then Suning made an assurance to the madam.

"There's a windy courtyard? Then you can do whatever you want."

It was because the people in Yunmiao Village were simple and honest, otherwise they would not agree to Suning's request. After the proprietress left in a hurry, Suning walked into the small restaurant with Xu Hongdou, who looked confused.

"Hongdou, please sit for a while. We will have dinner soon." Suning first asked the confused Xu Hongdou to sit down in the restaurant.

"Ah? Suning, can you really cook? Otherwise, let me do it." Looking at Suning who was about to take action, Xu Hongdou said with a questioning look on her face.

"Hongdou, the food I cook is delicious. If I hadn't gone into business, I might have become a chef." Seeing Xu Hongdou's face full of doubts, Suning explained with a smile.

"Suning, is this true?"

"Hongdou, don't be so quick to question it. You'll know after you try it." Seeing that Xu Hongdou still had some doubts, Su Ning smiled indifferently and said.

Suning walked into the kitchen of this small restaurant with a smile on his face. Looking at the various ingredients from the farm in the kitchen, Suning felt that although the sparrow was small, it had everything. Then he washed his hands and started to show off his skills.

Xu Hongdou, who had been sitting in the restaurant, couldn't help but feel curious, and tiptoed towards the kitchen. She saw Suning's smooth operations in the kitchen, which made Xu Hongdou's eyes full of stars.

Soon, Suning prepared four dishes and a soup with a reasonable combination of meat and vegetables. If he made too much, two people wouldn't be able to finish it. After all, we can't waste food, right? "Hongdou, come and try it. How does it taste?"

"Suning, it smells so good and the color is so beautiful. I believe it must be very delicious." Xu Hongdou picked up the chopsticks and picked up a piece of fish and started eating. She was immediately delighted.

"Red beans, it tastes good, right?" Suning quickly handed over a bowl of rice with a smile.

"Hmm! Hmm! Hmm! It's delicious!" Xu Hongdou nodded repeatedly in surprise.

"Haha, if it tastes good, eat more. After dinner, we will go for a visit to the beautiful Erhai Lake." Worried that Xu Hongdou would think she had gained weight by eating too much, Suning made special and thoughtful arrangements.

"Okay!" Xu Hongdou no longer cared about her ladylike image and started to eat heartily.

Soon, Suning and Xu Hongdou devoured the four dishes and one soup in no time, and Xu Hongdou adorably clutched her stomach, "Ah! Suning, you're almost filling me up."

"Hongdou, wait for me for a moment, I'll go wash the dishes." Suning stood up and cleaned up the leftovers.

"Ah? Suning, how about I wash the dishes?" Xu Hongdou stood up a little embarrassedly and took the initiative to wash the dishes.

"No need! I can brush quickly."

Su Ning went straight into the kitchen carrying the dishes they had used, and quickly cleaned them. He wiped his hands with a napkin beside him, and finally took out five hundred yuan and placed it under the fortune cat. "Hongdou, let's go!"

"Ah."

Suning smiled and asked Xu Hongdou to leave, then closed the door of the small restaurant. After having a good meal and a drink, Suning and Xu Hongdou were soon immersed in the beautiful scenery of Yunmiao Village again.

Suning and Xu Hongdou walked and stopped along the way, feeling extremely relaxed. Xu Hongdou opened her arms to welcome the spring breeze from Erhai Lake, "Suning, I really want to stay here forever. It's so beautiful here."

"Hongdou, if you really like it here, then we can buy a small farmhouse here." At this time, Suning was willing to spend a lot of money to win the beauty's smile.

"Ah? Suning, aren't you being too arrogant?" Xu Hongdou couldn't help but widen her eyes in surprise.

"Hongdou, as long as you like it, it's nothing. It just so happens that we can come here for vacation every year."

"Hmph! You're so beautiful!" Xu Hongdou said to Suning mischievously, suppressing her inner surprise.

Xu Hongdou was well aware of Su Ning's feelings for her. How could a woman not be moved by such an outstanding man like Su Ning? So at this moment, Xu Hongdou couldn't help but be moved, but she just wanted to continue observing Su Ning.

Seeing Xu Hongdou making a naughty face at him and then running away happily, Suning just watched quietly with a smile. The depression that had accumulated in his heart for many years was swept away. He felt that this was the comfortable life he wanted.

Beneath a large, lonely Metasequoia tree by the Erhai Lake, Xu Hongdou took a deep breath in the playful spring breeze. Suddenly, she looked at Su Ning with a searching expression and asked, "Su Ning, you have such good conditions, why haven't you gotten married yet?"

"Hongdou, I've actually been so busy with business that I've neglected my personal problems." Su Ning explained to Xu Hongdou insincerely.

"Suning, I can feel that you are not telling the truth." Xu Hongdou was not satisfied with Suning's explanation because she was sensitive to Suning's abnormality.

"Hongdou, I don't want to talk about the past, but I really do like you."

Hearing Suning's straightforward confession, Xu Hongdou was stunned for a moment, and then just looked at Suning with a red face, without any response for a while.

Seeing Xu Hongdou like this, Suning sighed helplessly, realizing that he might have been too impatient. After all, he and Xu Hongdou had not been in contact for a long time, and he had plenty of time to let her get to know him slowly.

At this time, Xu Hongdou was also feeling very conflicted. After all, Suning's conditions were indeed very good, and Suning had been aggressive towards her during this period. Xu Hongdou couldn't help but feel a little confused, but she always felt that something was missing, and she did not immediately respond to Suning's confession today.

Confused, Xu Hongdou kept stepping on the ants on the ground. When she wasn't paying attention, she accidentally stepped on a pile of horse shit and immediately screamed in fear, "Ah!"

"Haha, Hongdou, you are so lucky." Looking at Xu Hongdou standing stiffly on a pile of horse shit, Suning couldn't help but burst into laughter.

"Suning, what should we do now?" Xu Hongdou asked Suning with a sad face, not daring to look down at the miserable situation under her feet.

"Hongdou, don't take the shoes. I'll carry you back on my back." Thinking of the male protagonist in the original drama walking around the city carrying shoes covered in cow dung, Suning at this moment would definitely not be able to do such a thing.

"Ah? Wouldn't that be littering?" The environment around Erhai Lake in Dali was too beautiful to be destroyed, and Xu Hongdou was a little conflicted because of the compulsory education she had received since childhood.

"Don't worry! The management here in Dali is very standardized. Someone will come here to sweep up the horse manure soon, and your shoes will definitely not become garbage." Environmental protection issues have been advocated all over the country recently. I believe that a top tourist destination like Erhai Lake will definitely not lack management.

"Thank you for your hard work then." Xu Hongdou agreed somewhat embarrassedly.

After Suning squatted in front of Xu Hongdou, Xu Hongdou lay on Suning's back with a blushing face and a beating heart, and she slowly pulled her feet out of her shoes. Suddenly, she felt a sense of security from Suning that she had never felt before. This sense of security was a magical feeling that she had never experienced before.

"Suning, am I very heavy?" Xu Hongdou asked in a low voice shyly.

"It's okay! My physical fitness is still good enough, and I have no pressure in carrying you back to "Windy Courtyard"." Suning said with a confident smile. After all, how could Zhu Bajie dislike the tiredness of carrying his wife?

"Suning, I didn't answer you just now. Are you a little disappointed?" At this time, Xu Hongdou lay on Suning's back and suddenly asked about his concerns just now.

"Well, a little bit! But I know I was too impatient, so I will be patient with you from now on."

"Suning, can you give me a little more time to think about it?" Xu Hongdou asked Suning with a pleading look on her face.

"Okay! I'll wait for you."

In fact, Suning and Xu Hongdou did not walk far from Yunmiao Village. After all, they were just taking a leisurely walk after dinner, so as long as Suning was willing, he could quickly return to "Youfeng Courtyard". However, this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and Suning wanted to appreciate the scenery along the way, so he deliberately carried Xu Hongdou on his back and took a detour along Erhai Lake to slowly return.

Although Xu Hongdou has not yet made the final promise, she has unconsciously set her mind on Su Ning. After all, Su Ning perfectly meets all of Xu Hongdou's requirements for a boyfriend, so it is inevitable that Xu Hongdou will be tempted.

No matter how Suning artificially prolonged the journey, he still had to carry Xu Hongdou back to Yunmiao Village. When the villagers and tourists in Yunmiao Village saw such a strange combination of Suning and Xu Hongdou, they couldn't help pointing or showing envious expressions. On the shore of such a poetic and picturesque Erhai Lake, the behavior of the two was still very romantic.

By the time the two returned to "Youfeng Xiaoyuan", it was already completely dark. Xie Xiaochun, the proprietress of "Youfeng Xiaoyuan", looked at them in surprise, "Mr. Su, what happened to Miss Xu?"

"Haha, Madam Boss, Hongdou accidentally stepped on horse shit by the Erhai Lake, and then I carried her all the way back." Thinking of Xu Hongdou's embarrassing situation just now, Suning couldn't help laughing again.

"." Xu Hongdou pressed her face against Suning's back in shame, her face actually red all the way to her ears.

"Ah? I'm so sorry." Xie Xiaochun, the proprietress of Yunmiao Village and the direct manager of the area near Erhai Lake, said a little sheepishly, "I'll go clean up early tomorrow morning. Maybe I can get Miss Xu's shoes back for cleaning."

"Forget it! It's just a pair of shoes. It won't cost much. We don't want it."

After casually speaking to the proprietress Xie Xiaochun, Suning walked upstairs briskly with Xu Hongdou on his back, then opened the door and entered the room without any pause. It was a smooth and continuous action.

The proprietress Xie Xiaochun looked at Su Ning's strong back and his brisk steps while carrying Xu Hongdou on her back. She couldn't help but mutter to herself with bright eyes, "Mr. Su is so strong!"
